Our Birmingham-Based Firm’s Approach to Wealth Management

McClellan Wealth Management’s approach to each individual starts with gaining a deep and thorough understanding of our client’s financial assets and what matters most to them.

Successful younger clients who are still growing their wealth and planning for their future have vastly different needs from those approaching retirement and looking to maximize what they have accumulated over the years.

we will consider every extenuating circumstance and personal detail carefully before we advise you on our best methods of growing your funds. Your future financial well-being depends on your financial plan and how well your current wealth is managed; McClellan Wealth Management understands this.

How does McClellan Wealth Management get paid for services?

Transparency is key at McClellan Wealth Management. When choosing a financial planner, you put your future and your family’s financial well-being on the line. You may want to consider whether the advisor is held to a fiduciary standard of care.

An investment advisor should act in your best interest. SEC-registered advisors are fee-based and should not charge commissions. These arrangements are typically more transparent and leave less room for conflict of interest.

Our relationships with our clients are all fiduciary in nature.

An advisor who is registered with a broker-dealer as an investment advisor representative generally works for commissions. This means they may have the incentive to make suggestions based on how much commission they may make. 

What are the benefits of a fiduciary financial advisor?

The main benefit of an investment advisor representative is that they are held to a fiduciary standard of care to act in their client’s best interest. 

Though registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission does not imply any level of skill or training, registered financial advisors are regulated, and advisors may be penalized for violating their standards or rules. (An advisor may only be registered in a particular state or not at all versus the SEC, but the same rules apply.)

Under the duty loyalty, an investment advisor must eliminate or fully disclose all conflicts of interest that might incline an investment advisor – consciously or unconsciously – to render advice that is not disinterested such that a client can provide informed consent to the conflict.
